Komatsu PC35

Used Komatsu PC35: Buyer Fit Before Quote

Komatsu PC35 should not be treated as a generic used excavator purchase. Compact utility work with better stability than micro machines. Komatsu buyers often compare fuel use, hydraulic smoothness and resale against Hitachi, Caterpillar and Kobelco machines in the same weight range.

Komatsu PC35 works best as a compact utility machine where access, attachment fit and resale are more important than heavy production output. It is often compared with Komatsu PC01 for the smaller step and Komatsu PC55 when more reach, weight or capacity is needed. Before treating the price as real, request a walkaround video, cold-start clip, meter-panel photo and close-ups of the undercarriage.

How Buyers Usually Use the Komatsu PC35

Komatsu PC35 is usually bought for compact jobs where access, bucket choice and rubber-track condition decide whether the unit saves money. Typical work includes landscaping, pipe repair, small foundations, trenching and rental-yard utility work.

For B2B buyers, the cleaner deal is often the machine with clearer condition proof rather than the lowest first number. Buyers need exact-machine photos, video, year, hours and shipment cost before committing.

Condition Risks to Verify on Video

Track wear, slew ring looseness, oil condition, hydraulic hose leaks and hitch pin fit. Ask for cold-start footage, hydraulic cycle video, swing and travel video, undercarriage close-ups and a clear meter-panel photo.

Ask for the machine turning, digging under load, traveling in both directions and holding the boom still. Fresh paint and still photos cannot prove pump response, final-drive noise or linkage play.

Quote Checklist Before Payment

• Confirm the exact Komatsu PC35 year and meter photo before quoting.
• Match the bucket, breaker lines and coupler to the buyer’s first job.
• Check undercarriage close-ups instead of relying on repaint quality.
• Compare inland freight, port handling and ocean freight before deposit.
• Record cold-start smoke, idle sound and hydraulic cycle speed on video.
• Verify the 3,765 kg reference against the actual nameplate when possible.
• Review track wear during live video inspection.
• Separate optional repainting, spare bucket and spare parts from the base FOB quote.
• Hold final payment until loading photos and shipping documents are confirmed.
• Ask whether the stock unit includes manuals, extra attachments or service records.
• Photograph the serial plate and engine plate when the buyer needs import files.
• Note any oil leak, welded repair or missing guard before the proforma invoice is issued.

Reference Specs for Quote Comparison

Use these fixed model references for comparison only. Confirm stock-specific year, hours, bucket set, cosmetic condition and service history from the actual available unit.

Estimated FOB Price and Next Step

Estimated FOB reference: US$9,000-15,000. This is a B2B used-machine reference range, not a checkout price. Final quotation depends on year, hours, undercarriage condition, attachment package, repainting request, current stock and destination port.
